Understanding public perceptions of the urban riverfront as social-ecological systems: the case of Tours (France)

Various entities offer to evaluate the adequacy of applications for urban waterfront development. This study focused on the underlying assumptions that gave a comprehensive review of urban waterfront development projects and applications and analysed user impressions in Kyrenia Ancient Harbour. Visitors to Kyrenia, including employees, employers, students, and creative people, were asked to complete a questionnaire. This study discovered that the twelve underlying factors of creative waterfronts included awareness of people, promotion of entrepreneurs, creative spaces and activities, innovation, tolerance, physical comfort, political support, social cohesion, diversity of function, economic contribution, and cultural preservation. An evaluation of the creative environment at Kyrenia Waterfront found various degrees of user participation based on several statistical tests. Most community members saw the example area favourably due to its distinctive urban characteristics and socialisation possibilities. Locals, however, believe that creative folks require new technologies and ideas to be more productive.
